Chuvash language - Wikipedia

Just thinking here. Is there any #chess #terminology for the #Chuvash language?

Для чего это задумывалось. Кажется можно назвать преальфой 😂

Получился такой хитмап по биграммам и триграммам из реальных текстов.

Пока примерно 5,5 миллионов уникальных коллокейшнов и около 26 миллионов символов.

Источники все со свободной лицензией для некомерческого использования (и библия там же, надо бы сделать для неё машиночитаемую разметку :D, наверное и коран тоже было бы прикольно, но там вроде нет свободного доступа). Тексты были нормализованны.

Собираю частотную карту по символам чувашского алфавита, буду рад любым текстам (нормализацию сам сделаю). Лучше конечно большим. Вики стянул, но там мало :(

Would anyone have any interest in creating a small #game based on #Chuvash #mythology? :)

#Чӑваш юмахӗсем тӑрӑх кӗске #вӑйӑ тӑвас текенсем пур-и?

The #dombra (#tӑmra) is a #Chuvash folk musical #instrument, a plucked musical instrument. The tӑmra is tuned in quarta. It is mainly played in dancing (takmaks) guest #songs. It is also found in youth songs. This instrument has been almost lost, but is now being actively restored.
Video from the instagram account of the "Chuvash Initiative Group Haval" (cv_haval). "Haval" can be translated from the Chuvash language as both “strength, life energy, success” and “tradition”.

The plural affix in #Chuvash and its difference from other #Turkic #languages .
One of the most visible differences between Chuvash and other Turkic languages is the plural form, given through affix -sem/-sam, while other Turkic languages use affix -lar/-ler/-tar/-ter and derivatives. This is a consequence of the early branching of the ancestor of the Chuvash language from other Turkic languages - the Chuvash language, as is known, belongs to the Bulgar group and is the only living language.
